The MTCNE Scholarship Fund is a discretionary scholarship fund to increase access to the AMI diploma and certificate courses offered through our training center.

The “Pay-it-back-Pay-it-forward” Fund supports students seeking a bachelor’s degree with a Montessori education concentration.………………………………………………………………………..

Scholarship Application Process (MTCNE Scholarship Fund Only)

For courses that begin in June 2021 the scholarship application deadline is June 3, 2021. 

More generally and for all future courses, scholarship applications will be reviewed three times a year.

The scholarship application due dates are as follows:

• Summer program start: April 3

The Scholarship Review Committee will meet one week after the due date for review.  Late applications will not be considered.  

There are three components to the MTCNE Scholarship Application:

1. Complete the MTCNE application and interview process and be accepted into a MTCNE Diploma Course or Certificate Course prior to the scholarship application due date.
2. Submit financial aid profile (FAFSA or alternative evidence as approved by committee).
3. Complete the Scholarship Questionnaire, which includes demographic information and two questions related specifically to this scholarship application.
